Wow, everyone is doing horribly except for Nintendo. Even then, the Wii and DS have seen better days.

At least the PS3 is above 100k! Hurrah!

 

Well nothing of any real note has come out in a while.

Wii just gets lower and lower every month. But I think with the Wii motion plus in July, Wii sales may have a small spike in July but then drop way back down to where they are now, 90-100k a week until the holidays.

which is ok if the HD consoles continue staying between 30000-50000 a week... it's all relative

 



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

oh my hahaha low numbers. Not what im used to see in Americas. I guess lack of new games, time of the year and recession are causing it. I hope punch out helps the wii.



depressing numbers but ps3 is close to 360 this week



Around the Network

Xbox 360 adjusted down by almost 87,000 units. While PS3 was adjusted up by almost 160,000 units.



Do we still get to see Wii iz doomz articles this week?



As Smeags isn't doing it this week, I'll do the numbers (WoW, YoY). He normally makes it into another thread, but I'll keep it here.

 

Worldwide week over week (left side = last week, right side = current week)

Wii: 230K - 222K - Down 8K - Down 3.5%

X360: 116K - 111K - Down 5K - Down 4.3%

Ps3: 107K - 100K - Down 7K - Down 6.5%

PsP: 133K - 124K - Down 9K - Down 6.7%  

DS: 408K - 371K - Down 37K - Down 9%

 

Year over Year (same setup)

Wii: 395K - 222K - Down 173K - Down 43.8%

X360: 161K - 111K - Down 50K - Down 31.1%

Ps3: 183K - 100K - Down 83K - Down 45.3%

PsP: 208K - 124K - Down 84K - Down 40.3%  

DS: 414K - 371K - Down 43K - Down 10.3%

 

Heavily down all around the board.

 

So far in quarter 2 (compared to same period last year)

Wii: 2602K - 1417K - Down 1185K - Down 45.5%

X360: 871K - 773K - Down 98K - Down 11.3%

Ps3: 1088K - 741K - Down 347K - Down 32%

PsP: 1432K - 815K - Down 617K - Down 43%  

DS: 2593K - 3490K - Up 897K - Up 34.5%

Industry as a whole: 8586K - 7236K - Down 1350K - Down 15.7%

 

And the fact that many good games were released during this period last year (compared to the other periods of that year) doesn't really work, as the 3 quarters saw pretty much equal sales last year. Of course, the point of this year having a lack still stands (to some extent).

Either way, this is pretty interesting.

 



When I write Fact: in one part of the post, and opinion: (or a similar word), it's not because I can then say "my opinion can't be wrong". It is to inform what part is pure facts, and which part I try to draw a conclusion in.
